I.an, Nan, Ann, purple, orange. We are working on following directions,
listening skills and printing.
Please check the gold word list in your child's blue folder. It lists all of

PLEASE label all sweaters and sweatshirts. The children cannot identify
their clothing and can't remember if they wore a sweater when they came to

Have your child practice printing his/her name each day. Don't forget

this information.
